Q: Could adjust your answer Ross's question on sector allocation for the following: 0% to real estate due to large equity in personal home, and a bit less conservative (no need for income from portfolio for 10 years).

Q: As suggested by 5i, I sold half of TCN when the "going private" announcement was made, The stock now seems to be quite range-bound, and I'm wondering if I should wait until the deal closes, or could I sell the remaining half now in order to better deploy the capital. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

Q: On Jan. 17 Fernando asked a hypothetical question about keeping down the taxes on capital gains. I don't understand the last sentence of your reply: "Gains can also be reduced by carrying charges (interest) if any of the stocks pay a dividend". Can you please explain this? What in this situation can be written off as a carrying charge?

Q: hi,
I hold all these, several fro many years. they are all in the red. many are (former) stalwart blue chip dividend plays. I am basically comfortable holding them, and I do expect a good rebound in prices when rates start to fall. 1) am I missing something? are there any in the list that you think the dividend may be in jeopardy, or you see no runway for growth ( small or large). 2) are there any in the list you would be comfortable adding to ( which is what I am wanting to do)?
cheers, Chris

Q: Hi 5i,
I have about 15K that I want to put into my RSP before the February deadline and then immediately invest for a minimum 5 year hold to accumulate capital gain and dividend income. Currently I'm considering TOU or DIR.UN for this, and would appreciate your thoughts about the relative merits of each for this use of the funds, and which one you think will outperform the other on a total gain basis in that time period - based on just the standard ups, downs and risks that are out there and not taking into account any potential calamitous economic events.
Thanks!
Peter

Q: I've discussed my Flutter shares with BMO Investorline representatives (and their backroom) for a couple of days now. The PDYPF shares are NOT ADRs but I'm not sure what they are. Are they CDIs (Depository Interest)? BMO IL says that I can only sell my shares on the LSE but to do that my shares need to be converted to FLTR. I see no logical reason they could not be converted to FLUT and sold on the NYSE. I don't think I am being given the right answer. Do you know what a PDYPF share actually is??
